The Fraud of "Voting Fraud:" A Conversation w/ Scott Cummings
Manage episode 277447147 series 2361825
Aaron Freiwald, Managing Partner of Freiwald Law and host of the weekly podcast, Good Law | Bad Law, is joined by Professor Scott Cummings, of UCLA Law, to discuss legal ethics, our electoral system, and the recent rash of election lawsuits being filed in court by the Trump campaign.
It hasn’t been a week since news broke of former Vice-President Joe Biden’s presidential victory and yet, President Trump and his re-election team have filed countless lawsuits asserting that the results of the election are invalid due to unsubstantiated claims of fraud. In today’s episode, Aaron and Scott discuss these frivolous lawsuits, their potentially damaging effects, and the lawyers who are bringing them. What are the issues at play? And will these attorneys face punishment for their roles in bringing bogus claims?
Professor Cummings is the Robert Henigson Professor of Legal Ethics and a Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law, where he teaches and writes about the legal profession, public interest law, law and social movements, and community economic development. He is the faculty director of Legal Ethics and the Profession (LEAP), a program promoting research and programming on the challenges facing the contemporary legal profession. Professor Cummings is also a long-time member of the UCLA David J. Epstein Program in Public Interest Law and Policy, a specialization training students to become public interest lawyers.
A graduate of both Berkeley (B.A.) and Harvard (J.D.), Professor Cummings’ research is focused on economic development, law and social movements, and the legal professional. He is the co-author of the first public interest law textbook, Public Interest Lawyering: A Contemporary Perspective (with Alan Chen), and co-editor of a leading legal profession casebook, Legal Ethics (with Deborah Rhode, David Luban, and Nora Engstrom).
